A red ripple Waterman 52 with what looks like a very unusual, very flexible, broad oblique nib (ebay # 170238602028) and a Pelikan Ibis with an OM nib.

Helloooo fellow pen hounds..... :happyberet:

 

I have just ordered a Sailor Sapporo F nib with gold trim. I don't reckon it will arrive till next week though...... :crybaby:

(I've already got a Professional Gear with B nib)

 

For what pen(s) are you waiting, in the mail? And are you waiting patiently lol....

 

I am waiting, fairly patiently so far, for a Parker 51 full-sized Flighter that should be in sometime this week. And about a week after that I should be getting a stylograph pen that is probably over a hundred years old. Both were amazingly inexpensive, the Flighter was $170 and the stylogragh was $5.

1. A Sheaffer Snorkel that Ernst Bitterman just restored for me (!);

2. A Lamy 27 from Deutschland- hopefully this week;

3. A Pelikan 400NN that worked out to be a good deal. Or at least, it looks like it was a pretty good deal to me!

 

All together, way too much.

 

Regards,

Aaron

WTB: Lamy 27 w/ OB/OBB nibs; Pelikan 100 B nib

:puddle: Amazing

 

And I am waiting for an unrecognized (yet) set I picked from eBay for $3.99 (because I really liked the black/red leather pouch):

OMG. Is that an Opera you picked up for $50??? Lucky you!

 

:puddle: :puddle:

 

:bawl: I've been looking for one of these for along time.

And I thought I was doing well when I picked up a BIN mint red Rhapsody for same price...

=

:ltcapd:

Yeah, this will be my second Opera for that price (stick with me, kid!), making a total of 3. The first one I got for about 200, so I have to make up for not being much of a sumgal at that point... :thumbup:

 

And congrats on your Rhapsody, that was a great price, too! I have also purchased a blue Rhapsody tester pen for 40.00 (thanks, Leigh!), and a LeMan 200 for 20.00. :bunny01:

:yikes: 2 Operas at $50!! You're clearly out sumgai-ing me! Best priced 100s - Patrician and Briarwood - both at $70 + a Patrician B.P. at $20. Haven't been able to find a 200 below $35.

I received said pen Monday and it's a vintage Remington from rroossinck. Pics and review to follow.

 

Thanks again rroossinck.
